White Sox Board is already slow, no need for a sub-forum

This is a great idea if feasible.

He has been thanked as well. Die with honor, QaPla!

Just wanted to make sure credit was given appropriately for the idea is all. Star Trek references though certainly make me happy because I've gotten to talk about Jacksonian America and Star Trek in the same day.

Rumors may affect both teams so an MLB forum is a good idea to corral all those threads. I don't know what kind of software Rush uses but if it's not feasible the rumors forums can be okay for organizing NL and AL rumors. An extra click isn't going to kill people; in my experience on other sites subforums are actually quite welcome.

You didn't express your opinion. You just said you the new sub-forums suck. That is far from expressing much of anything.

Having a "Chicago White Sox Rumors" means that it will help rank CCS up higher for Sox fans looking for rumors. If you google "Chicago White Sox Forum" on Google, we show up on the 1st page. We can also show up on the 1st page if we have a sub-forum called "Chicago White Sox Rumors". While the Cubs forum had it added to help organized, I figured well...the Sox forum could use some new posters and they might want more activity, I'll add it on there as well for search engine purposes 100%. Apparently this is an issue but...

If you GENUINELY are that upset by this let me know and I'll remove it. And then the only new baseball fans coming to the site for Rumors will be Cubs fans.

No need to act catty or like a female about this. "Rush has other ideas about the site with his new staff guys"...really? lol. Has nothing to do with them at all.

Hey, if it helps web searches for the site, then keep it in.

I wasn't aware of the thinking process behind it. It's kind of lame, but if it really helps the site then go with it.

Then obviously if it helps none, we can nix it and just keep it in the Cubs forum where it's actually wanted.

But if the concensus is to take it down I'm fine with that to. It's w/e makes the current members happy not the prospects.

Whatever brings in more members makes me happy. I'm tired of talking about KW with dews only :)

But seriously, if you see that it brings in more traffic, keep it. If it ends up not doing much, then just scrap it.

I applaud looking at new ideas to keep everything fresh :clap:

We need some more Sox fans on here, because this is the slowest forum. Not sure how to recruit for this though.

A rumors thread would be nice to keep organized if there was more news and more discussion in the Sox forum.
